Provides that rarest of documentary accomplishments: a glimpse into the artists' sunny, dark hearts.
It could turn someone who never heard of the Flaming Lips into a devoted fan.
Mr. Beesley, an Oklahoma City native who has been following and filming the Flaming Lips for 15 years, is far too close to his subject to offer a critical perspective, but he achieves a level of intimacy with the band members that most rock documentary directors can only dream of.
In the wonderful new rockumentary The Fearless Freaks, Flaming Lips fans describe the band's live performances in almost spiritual terms, and for once, their fervor seems wholly justified.
An all-access fan's valentine as artfully scrappy and likably wide-eyed as its subjects.
Beesley's film is perfectly in sync with the Lips' unique vision.
